MEDFORD, Ore. -- The girlfriend of a former Medford police detective is in custody in connection with a deadly shooting.
The Mail Tribune reports 45-year-old Charlene Meixner is facing charges after her 61-year-old boyfriend Ray Leach was found shot to death at his home.
Meixner is facing first-degree manslaughter charges. Police were called to Leach's home on Wednesday night.
Leach had resigned from the Medford police force in 2002 following a drunken driving conviction. He had served 10 days in jail.
Medford police are still investigating.
